Introducing Feverish, my black and white and rainbow lap quilt (I know, it doesn't technically meet the "one color" part of the challenge, but the blacks and whites are such a key element, I couldn't resist sharing).

Rocking chair after.I think my little monogrammed pillow was the perfect thing! I used a green and white polka dot for the pillow cover and a black and white mini-polka dot for the monogram. I machine appliqued it in black thread using the satin stich.

I hope to have a tutorial on my blog , soon, on how to make your own. I'll let you know when I do.

This 40" w x 39" high wall hanging inspired by a 1999 pattern of Janet Jones Worley is almost ready to go to the longarm quilter ~ once finished, it will hang near my desk at work.

Why Dave & Friends? I took another quilt to the office a week or so ago and asked my co-workers to help name it. During that process, one of our attorneys kept saying 'name it Dave' ~ didn't fit for that quilt but it works for this one (plus there are now 12 partners in our firm, two of whom are Davids ~ not something I 'planned' but it happened anyway).

There's another black and white and red pending, but I need to finish up a few other tops first.
